In the heart of a beloved Waban neighborhood, this unique "Arts & Crafts" brick colonial home was thoughtfully renovated and expanded in 2007 and offers over 4,000 square feet of living space on four levels. The first floor boasts an updated eat-in gourmet kitchen which flows into an expansive family room with gas fireplace and wet bar, formal living room with fireplace and built-ins, separate dining room and mudroom with laundry. The second floor has a front-to-back master with an en-suite bathroom, two generous bedrooms and family bath. The third floor holds two bedrooms and an oversized bathroom. Other highlights include many skylights, radiant heat in the kitchen and bathrooms, heated towel racks, mosaic tiles, attached garage and a beautifully landscaped yard with bluestone patio. Conveniently located .2 miles from the brand new Zervas Elementary School (opening Fall 2017) and close to Cold Spring Park, the Waban T, libraries, playgrounds, Waban center and highway access.

Wonderfully proportioned rooms, large island kitchen & separate mud/laundry room. Master bath & walk-in closet, 3 additional bedrooms & central A/C. Finished LL rec. room with great natural light. Adding today's amenities and some decorator's touches could reap big value.
